What to avoid

Standard vs deep cleaning

Standard visits maintain kitchens and bathrooms between resets; deep cleans budget extra dwell on grout-adjacent zones, ovens, and detail dust-downs. Compare standard cleaning (Cape Town) and deep cleaning (Cape Town) before you lock rooms online.

Move-outs & deposits
